I. INTRODUCTION
Motivation is a set of attitudes and values that influence individuals to achieve specific things
according to individual goals. Sutrisno explained that motivation is a factor that encourages a person to perform
a specific activity, because the motivation is often defined as well as supporting a person's behavior (Sutrisno,
2011: 109). Another expert opinion states that motivation is the encouragement of a process of human behavior
on reaching the goal (Wibowo, 2010: 379). The attitudes and values is something invisible that gives power to
encourage people to behave in achieving the objectives. The process of motivation can be described if one is not
satisfied with the result of tension, which will eventually find a way or actions to meet and continue mancari
satisfaction according to its size alone was appropriate and should be fulfilled.
Anyone would agree that among all of the components in the learning process, the teacher is a highly
strategic component. There is no quality learning without quality teachers. The teacher is a life-giving spirit in
the learning process. Teachers are human resources that determine the success of learning. Teacher education is
an element that is very closely related to the learners in their daily educational efforts in schools and many
learners determine success in achieving its objectives.
So very strategic position of teachers as professionals, in the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number
14 Year 2005 on Teachers and Lecturers, Chapter III Article 7, mandated that the teaching profession is a field
of specialized work carried out by the following principles: (a) have talent, interest, call the soul, and idealism;
(B) a commitment to improve the quality of education, faith, piety and noble character; (C) have the academic
qualifications and educational background in accordance with the task; (D) have the necessary competence in
accordance with the task; (E) has the responsibility for the implementation of the tasks of professionalism; (F)
derives income determined in accordance with job performance; (G) have the opportunity to develop in a
sustainable manner with the professionalism of lifelong learning; (H) have legal protection in carrying out the
task of professionalism; and (i) have professional organizations that have the authority to regulate matters
relating to the duties of professionalism of teachers.
Teachers according to a new paradigm not only acts as a transmitter of information, transfer of
knowledge, but as a motivator and facilitator of the learning process. Positive mental attitude, creativity and
motivation is necessary for teachers, who have a role not only as a transmitter of knowledge in front of the class,
but also plays a role of leadership and renewal in the community, where they work in an effort to provide what
services are desired and needed by the participants students and the community.
This has attracted researchers to conduct research with the analysis unit educator / teacher SMAN in
Jambi Province. This study is important, because first, educators future would have a tough challenge for
example, have to prepare citizens to be intelligent, and character. Secondly, educators should be a solid team,
tough ready to work hard and work smart. Third, the fate of the future of the nation is dependent on the
willingness and ability of educators themselves. Therefore the issue of motivation educator / teacher is very
urgent to be studied.
Based on this research background, the purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze:
1) The effect of Work Climate on Work Motivation;
2) The effect of Leaders Characteron Work Motivation;
3) The effectsWork Climateand Leaders Characteron Work Motivation SMAN teachers in Jambi Province.
encouragement of achievement, (4) The attitude of human relationships. In determining the approach of this nature
there are two types of approaches, namely (1) compare the properties of those who emerged as the leader with
people who do not become a leader, (2) comparing the properties of an effective leader with an ineffective leader.
George Manning & Kent Curtis stated that trait theory focuses on the quality of a leader, being a
behavioral theory focuses on the actions of leaders. Furthermore, George Maning & Kent Curtis (2003: 175) states,
The traits of a theory of leadership that makes the assumtion distictive phsycal and psychological characteristics
account for leadership effectiveness. Robert House (in Ivancevich & Matteson, 2008: 213), conveying the leader's
theory by suggesting that effective leaders use domination, have confidence, influence and display high morality to
increase levels charismatic. The nature of the leader must be in tune with the situation where the leader's function.
Leadership is not a passive state but produced from an effective relationship between the leader and the group
members.
With regard to the properties of an effective leader., Yukl (2005: 184) states there are seven traits of effective
leaders, namely: (1) a powerful energy and tolerance to stress, (2) confidently, (3) internal locus of control , (4)
emotional stability and maturity, (5) personal integrity, (6) motivation socializing force, and (7) in a moderate
achievement orientation.
Furthermore Gibson, et.al., (2003, 300) states that the attributes of effective leaders there are three, namely:
(1) the ability, (2) personality, and (3) motivation. George Manning & Kent Curtis, 2003: 16) provides six properties
significant leaders in influencing effective leaders, namely: (1) need for achievement, (2) intelligence, (3) decision-
making, (4) confidence, (5 ) initiative, and (6) the ability of supervision. Furthermore, House identified four leadership
behaviors: (1) The leader directing (directive leader), (2) The leader of the support (supportive leader), (3) The leader
of the participatory (partsivative leader), (4) The achievement-oriented (achievement -oriented leader) .Usman (2011:
291) describes the general criteria of leadership traits, namely (1) intelligent, (2) confidently, (3) determine, (4)
integrity, and (5) social spirit.
Opinion Gary Yulk and George manning & Kent Curtis above are the same properties that confidence,
internal locus of control together with surveillance, moderate achievement orientation the same as need for
achievement. Meanwhile, Maksun (2005) says that a leader must be credible, capable, acceptable, and accountable
leader must be trustworthy, competent, accepted by the people they lead, and responsible. Finally, Wayne K. Hoy &
Cecil G. Miskel (2005: 389) give the task properties effective leader is: (1) personality, (2) motivation, and (3) skills.
Personality consists of; confident, stress tolerance, emotional maturity, and integrity. Motivation consists of; tasks and
interpersonal needs, success orientation, power requirements, and expectations. Skills include; technical, interpersonal
and conceptual.
Based on the opinion of Gary Yulk, George Manning and Kent Curtis, House, and Gibson can be synthesized
that the properties of the leader is a characteristic that focuses on quality leaders who can influence the satisfaction of
subordinates indicators: (1) personality, (2) integrity, ( 3) confidence, (4) social spirit, and (5) skills.
Work Motivation
Locke and Latham (2002: 105) gives the sense of motivation "Motivation is the internal force that
drives a workker to action as well as the external factors that encourage that action Motivation is an internal
force that drives seoprang workers to act, as well as factors external drives such action. Richard J. Gerring gives
the sense of "The general term for all the processes Involved instarting, directing, and maintaining physical and
psychological activities" (Ricahard J. Gerrig, 2008: 362). The general term to describe all the processes involved
in initiating, directing, and maintaining physical activity and psychological.
Motivation is related to energy, direction, persistence and deadline (equifinality-all) all aspects of
intention and attention. Along with this opinion, Mangkunagara defines that motivation is a condition (energy)
that moves within the individual that is directed to achieve organizational goals (Anwar King, 2005: 21).
Meanwhile Moorhead and Griffin defines motivation is a collection of processes that cause people to act in a
certain way or manner (Gregory and Griffin, 2008: 78).
Opinions Geenberg and Baron (2003: 126) is a boost when a process can evoke, direct, and maintain
human behavior toward the achievement of several goals. Robbins and Judge (2007: 166) defines motivation is
a process that involves individual intensity, direction, and persistence of effort toward the achievement of a goal.
Similarly, Supardi and Anwar define motivation is a state in the person who drives the desire of individuals to
undertake certain activities in order to achieve a goal (Supardi and Syaiful, 2004: 47). Some definitions or
opinions on the above, it was concluded that the motivation is encouragement, effort, attention in oneself
individual in doing the work to achieve the desired objectives.
Basically motivation is the psychological processes ask for directing, direction, and sets voluntary leads
to the goal. Tampubolon expressed the same opinion (2004: 80) that the motivation associated with behavioral
direction, the strength of the response (ie business) after the employee chooses to follow a certain action, and
endurance behavior, or how long the person was continuously behave in a certain way. This opinion see that the
motivation should be focused on the factors that drive and direct the activities of a person and motivation can
influence performance.
The theory of motivation Path Goal proposed Vroom believes that (1) people are motivated to do
something that they feel have high gain lead to a reward (award) that they value, (2) interest in the job
satisfaction comes from the association a low but consistent with the performance (Usmara, 2006; 44). One
possible cause is the satisfaction of performance. By using the path Goal motivation theory, Vroom has shown
that job satisfaction and performance is caused by something completely different: "job satisfaction is
influenced by a number of rewards received by employees from their jobs and the level of performance is
strongly influenced by the basic reward achievement.
George and Jones (2005: 175) suggests motivation is a psychological process, the direction a person's
behavior in an organization and strengthen the level of effort seseorang.Hodoyo (2003) found motivation to
work is a collection that will stabilize the ambitions, aspirations, expectations, norms, and needs to be employed.
George and Jones (2005: 183) stated motivation is just one among many factors to a result of the work
(performance). Furthermore, it defines that motivation can be described as a psychological process in a person
to determine the direction and efforts in organizations to meet the challenges.
Herberg (2015) from his research concluded their six motivational factors: (1) achievement; (2)
recognition; (3) the progress of the promotion; (4) the work itself; (5) wants to develop; (6) responsibility. As
for maintenance there are ten factors that need to be considered, namely (1) of wisdom; (2) technical
supervision; (3) a human relations with superiors; (4) the relationship of humans with pembinanya; (5) human
relations with subordinates; (6) wages and salaries; (7) the stability of the work; (8) private life; (9) the
condition of the workplace; (10) status.
Based on the opinion of Locke and Latham, Greenberg and Baron, George and John, as well as
Herberg, can be synthesized, work motivation is encouragement from within the individual to do the work to
achieve the goals, indicators: (1) safety, (2) the award, (3 ) brave face rasiko, (4) the spirit of competition, (5) be
able to cope with problems at work, (six) recognized his work.

III. RESEACHMETHODE
This study uses a quantitative approach, which is a measurement-oriented approach to the variables
that are circled by theory or set theory (also referred to as the conceptual framework of the study). Specifically,
a theory or a set of these theories will help researchers to determine and measure the variables to be observed.
With the survey method is a study conducted through direct observation of a symptom or collection of
information from large and small population, but the data is studied data from a sample of as representing the
population data (Iskandar, 2005). It is based on the purpose of research that will look for the effect of directly or
indirectly from the working climate variables, properties leaders against endogenous variable work motivation.
The population in this study are all National High School teachers in Jambi Province. Target
population and affordable populations that serve as the research target is the Teacher of SMAN in Jambi
Province. Determination of the sample area is done by using demographic methods in order to obtain the sample
areas that Bungo, Jambi and TanjungJabungTimur. Researchers using the formula Slovin (Riduwan, 2013: 49)
to determine the number of samples refresentatif to the legitimacy of his generalizations. By using this equation
showed 228 respondents to be said to have a value of representativeness.
Data collection methods are the techniques or methods that can be used by researchers to collect data.
(Riduwan, 2010: 97). The methods used in data collection in this study is using data primer.Instrument used for
data collection in the form of a list of questions or a questionnaire.
Hypothesis testing
The t-test statistic used to determine whether climate variables work-qualities leader significant effect on work
motivation.Basis for decision-making to determine Ho and Ha is received is with the following criteria:
Ha accepted or refused, if t t table
Ho refused or accept Ha, when t> t table
Another alternative t test can be done through a significance test ( = 0.05) with the following criteria:
Ha accepted or refused, when Sig t>
Ho refused or accept Ha, when Sig t <
From table 2 above views t value for the working climate variables of 0.144, and the variable properties
amounted to 42.616 leaders. And motivation of 0.00. Next we will look for the value of work ttabeliklim (X1),
the properties of the leader (X2), motivation (X3) in the following manner: 1) Determining the level of
significance of the study is 0,05; 2) Determine df (degree of freedom), df = n - k - 1 = 207-3 - 1 = 203; and 3)
Using Excel formula, the formula = TINV (0.05; 38) with a value of 1,654.
First hypothesis
Climate influences of Work (X1) to Work Motivation Master SMAN in Jambi (Y). Statistical
hypotheses: H0: p310; H1: P31 <0
Criteria for testing the hypothesis H0 is rejected if tcount>ttable, and H0 is accepted if tcount<ttable. Based on
the analysis of the data manually obtained by the path coefficients X1 to X3 (31) = 1.457, with a significance
level = 0, 05 and df = 203 values obtained table = 1.654. The result of the calculation to get the value t =
14.144. From the above calculation can be explained that t> t table (14.144> 1.654, thus Ho will be rejected
or receive Ha. Alternative further testing to see the level of significance of the work climate variables (X1) is
0.004 (<0.05). Thus, Ho rejected and Ha accepted. These test results show that the working climate positive and
significant effect on work motivation (hypothesis 2a accepted). this means that the hypothesis which states
climate work (X1) effect on work Motivation Master SMAN in Jambi (Y) can accepted as verified.
The results of this study indicate that the working environment is measured by the motivation to work has a
positive and significant contribution to the high-low work ethic. This means that the high and low working
climate is explained by the teacher work motivation. Therefore, to optimize the working environment of
teachers, of which should optimize decision making, task structure, the flow of communication, attention to
workers and sportive attitude towards fellow workers.
The findings provide insight that the working climate as psychological conditions of teachers in
schools in their duties need to be conditioned as comfortable as possible. Pleasant surroundings will make the
passion in work, creating harmony between teachers and eventually produktivitaspun will increase. The
relationship between motivation, morale and optimal results in the sense of having a linear shape with the
provision of a good motivation to work, then the morale of teachers will be increased and the work will be
optimized in accordance with the performance standards set. Morale as a form of motivation can be seen among
others from teacher attendance rates, as well as responsibility towards the working time has been set.
Second hypothesis
There is the influence of properties Leader (X2) to Work Motivation Master SMAN in Jambi (Y)
.Hipotesis statistic: H0: p210; H1: p21 <0
Criteria for testing the hypothesis H0 is rejected if tcount>ttable, and H0 is accepted if tcount<ttable.
Based on the analysis of the data manually obtained by the path coefficients X2 to X3 (21) = 1.457, with a
significance level = 0, 05 and df = 203 values obtained table = 1.654. The result of the calculation to get the
value t = 42.616.
Further testing the hypothesis 2b based on table 2 above the results obtained t count on the properties
of the leader (X2) amounted to 42.616 while t table 1,654. Thus found that t> t table (62.616 <1.654).
Alternative further testing to see a significance level of variable traits leader (X2) is 0.000 (<0.05). Thus will
accept or reject Ho Ha. These test results show that the properties of significant pemimpinberpengaruh on work
motivation (Hypothesis 2b accepted). This means that the hypothesis which states properties of Leader (X2)
effect on Work Motivation Master SMAN in Jambi (Y) can be accepted as verified.
The results of this study indicate that the properties of the leader as measured by teacher work
motivation has a positive and significant contribution to the high-low work ethic. This means that the high and
low qualities described by the leader of the teacher work motivation. Therefore, to optimize the properties of the
concept of a leader should be pursued to increase motivation among teachers working through the nature of his
personality, integrity, confidence, and zero social skills.
Effective and dynamic leader who will be able to control, direct and motivate teachers towards the
achievement of improvements in the quality of teachers. As well as with properties effective leader will be able
to increase the motivation of teachers in performing their duties.
Increased job motivation of teachers at a school can not be separated from the role of leader in the
school, leadership is key in the management plays an important role and strategic in school, the leader is the
originator of interest, plan, organize, mobilize and control all available resources so that school objectives
effectively and efficiently. Therefore, a leader must be able to create a favorable social conditions of each of his
subordinates and increased employee motivation which will have implications for the increased productivity of
labor.
Third hypothesis
To test the hypothesis 3, that is, whether the work climate variables, the properties of the leader
simultaneously significant effect on work motivation, it will be tested jointly against regression coefficients
using the F test statistic.

Basis for decision-making to determine Ho and Ha accepted is with the following criteria:
Ha Ho accepted or refused, if F arithmetic F table
Ha Ho is rejected or receive, if F count> F table
Alternative F test can be done through tests of significance ( = 0.05), with the following criteria:
Ha Ho accepted or refused, when Sig F>
From Table 3 above is known that the value of F arithmetic amounted to 927.764. Next we will look
for the value of F table in the following manner:
1. Determining the level of significance of the research is 12:05
2. Determine the DF1. DF1 is derived from the number of independent variables.
3. Determine DF2. DF2 obtained from n - k - 1 = 207-3 - 1 = 203
From the above calculation can be explained that the F count> F table (927.764> 2.42), so Ho
rejected or receive Ha. Alternative further testing to see the significance level is equal to 0.000 (<0.05). Thus Ho
is rejected or receive Ha. It concluded that the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis
(H1) is accepted, it means working climate and the properties together leaders significantly influence the work
motivation. Thus the Third Hypothesis Accepted.
The study reveals that the working climate and the properties of the leader significant effect on work
motivation. So that if the principal wants to increase teacher work motivation then he improved work climate
and have the qualities a good leader because the properties kepeminpina that will effectively contribute to an
optimal level of teacher performance.
The results of this study indicate that the working climate and the properties measured leader who has
contributed positively and significantly on the level of work motivation. This means that the high and low
working climate, and the properties described by the leader of the teacher work motivation. Working climate is a
characteristic that distinguishes one organization to another, affecting the individuals in it, and to be relatively
persist in a certain period. Therefore, a good working climate will create job satisfaction is also good for
teachers in schools where teaching
The coefficient of determination or numbers R square is equal to 0.901 this means that 90.1% of the
variation of the dependent variable work motivation can be explained by the independent variables work
climate, the properties of commanders while the rest of 9.9 or 9.9% (1- 0.901 or 100% - 90.1%) is explained by
other variables outside of an existing variable. But the value of the other variable is small in the amount of 9.9%.
Rated R Square the range of 0 to 1, with a record number R square gets smaller, the weaker the relationship
between the two variables (and vice versa).
Working climate is a characteristic that distinguishes one organization to another, affecting the
individuals in it, and to be relatively persist in a certain period. Therefore, a good working climate will create a

good motivation to work well for teachers in schools where teaching. Working climate The relative quality of
the internal environment of the organization are maintained and differentiate the organization with other
organizations, including: the results of the behavior and policies of members of the organization with other
organizations, something which is perceived and accepted by members of other organizations, serve as the basis
for interpreting something and act as a source of pressure for the actual activity.
Leadership has a close connection with motivation, because the success of a leader in mobilizing others
in achieving the goals set relies heavily on the authority, and also the leader in creating motivation in everyone
subordinates, colleagues and superiors leaders themselves. A leader motivates followers through certain
leadership qualities that will generate group goals and individual goals.
Effective leadership and motivation are two factors that have been considered as a basis for suksenya a
school. A leader who is able to provide direction for schools and teachers to lead to the achievement of the
desired objectives.While teachers with high motivation tends to exert more effort in their task of pursuing the
interests of the school.
On the strength level leadership positions are authorized principals to evaluate the implementation of
the work of teachers, reward, promotion, punishment. The greater the formal authority of a school principal to
impose penalties and rewards, the stronger the kpalasekolah control which makes the situation more favorable
for school.
The effective leader is a leader who recognizes the important powers contained in the individual. Every
individual have different needs and desires are different. Each individual has a different skill levels also vary.
Leaders must be flexible in understanding any potential possessed by individuals and various problems faced by
the individual. By doing this approach, the leader can apply all the rules and policies of the organization and
delegate tasks and responsibilities appropriately. This is in line with efforts to grow the work commitment of a
teacher. So the leader in this case the principal should increase job satisfaction of teachers to work and can
improve the performance of teachers more effectively.
Other variables that influence the climate variables work and the properties of the leader on the
motivation of a person's work, in this context Gurus SMAN in Jambi province based on the analysis of
determination of this are: Status and responsibility, adequate compensation, working conditions, wishes and
personal expectations.
Another factor that menpengaruhi Work Motivation according to the results of previous studies
include: Innovation Leadership, Service Employee Satisfaction, Organizational Culture, Work Environment,
Competence, Performance, Career Certainty, Konvensasi and others.
Organizational Culture, Organizational Climate and Leadership Style positive and significant impact
on Organizational Commitment, either partially or simultaneously and have a positive impact also on Employee
Performance (Nanda Limakrisna, ZulkiZulkifli, Hapzi Ali, 2016).
Director, officer or teacher in an organization or institution would be able to carry out its duties and
functions effectively and efficiently if it is able to empower all the resources available. The resources available
are: man, money, machine, method sumbe Information Technology and other resources such as market and
material (Hapzi Ali, 2009: 49).
Work Motivation can also influence or affect other variables, based on the results of previous research
are: 1) Work Motivation and Job Satisfaction positive and significant impact on Organizational Commitment
and impact on Employee Performance / Employee, (Masydzulhak, Hapzi Ali, at. Al, 2016); 2) Work Motivation
and the Organization Climate terhahap positive and significant influence job satisfaction (Hapzi Ali, Mukhtar,
&Ansori, 2016).
Based on the recapitulation of the research hypothesis testing is working climate and the qualities a
good leader gives motivation to work excessive school teacher. Teachers are the key to success penetu
educational institutions in this school. So if teachers feel satisfied with the work that will result in the increase of
educational services to the community that led to the achievement of the goals of educational institutions. This
is because motivation is the condition of encouragement regarding likes and dislikes in the view of teachers to
work. Besides work motivation is also the feelings and reactions of individuals to the work environment to
provide optimal results. Therefore, should the principal should be able to create a conducive working
environment and possess effective leadership for the creation of job motivation of teachers in schools.
Working climate is an attribute, which is used in the embodiment of this attribute to their existence in
organizations working climate is a concept that describes the quality of the internal environment affecting the
behavior of school teachers in performing their work. In practice, it is important to create a climate of proper
work and providing effective resources so as to keep the school from negative things and can stimulate the
motivation of teachers to continue working.
Factors that affect the nature of the study covers the leader's personality, past experiences and
expectations of that leader, expectations and behavior of superiors, characteristics, expectations and behavior of
subordinates who show motivation to work, task requirements, culture, wisdom and hope as well as the behavior
of colleagues. In turn, these factors affecting leader.
Recommendation
Based on these results, we can conclude that the hypothesis working climate, leadership qualities can
affect motivation diterima.Ini teacher work can mean that the labor climate, and the properties owned by the
principal leaders who give a positive effect to work motivation of teachers.
Therefore, in order to improve teachers' work motivation, work climate, leadership qualities must be
considered. But other variables need to be considered in further studies of teacher job satisfaction.
The results of this study are also expected to be an alternative for other researchers who are interested
in research on variables associated with work motivation of teachers, by examining variables thought to be
responsible directly and indirectly for work motivation of teachers with respondents more and with using a
method that is more developed. So the study on work motivation of teachers to develop and more helpful.
